The Sabe Newsletter THE SABE NEWSLETTER THE SOCIETY FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF BEHAVIORAL ECONOMICS Statement of Purpose SABE is an association of scholars who are committed to rigorous economic analysis and are interested in learning how other disciplines – for example, psychology, sociology, anthropology, history, political science, and biology - further our understanding of economic behavior. An important function of SABE is to serve as a forum for research which may not find either comprehension or acceptance in conventional economics societies. SABE also aims at facilitating communication between economists and scholars trained in related disciplines. Website: www.sabeonline.org A new SABE website is nearly finished that will better facilitate the growth of SABE. Vol. 17, No. 1 Spring 2010 Editor: Simon James University of Exeter Business School Streatham Court, Exeter, EX4 4PU, United Kingdom Contributions for the next issue are very welcome – email: [email protected] Newsletter Contents Message from the SABE President 2 Conferences this Summer 3 Want to Organize a Future SABE Conference? 3 SABE Conference in San Diego 2010 3 SABE/IAREP Conference in Cologne 2010 4 SABE Session at the January 2011 ASSA Meetings in Denver 5 SABE Poster Session at the ASSA meetings in Denver 5 SABE at the Eastern Economic Association Conference, February 2010 6 SABE Country Representatives 8 New Masters Degree in Economics and Psychology in Paris 10 Charlotte Phelps’ New Research Project 11 Microeconomics: A Journey Through Life’s Decisions 11 by John Cullis and Philip Jones The Journal of Socio-Economics 11 SABE Officers and Board 12 Preliminary Program for the SABE San Diego Conference 2010 13 1 Message from the SABE President My two year term as president of SABE will come to an end this July, at which time Louis Levy- Garboua will become president. It has been my pleasure and honor to serve as SABE President these past two years. I want to thank Catherine Eckel and Jean Robert Tyran who organized good ASSA sessions for SABE the past two years. I want to thank Sonja Novkovic for organizing a great SABE-IAREP conference in Halifax last summer, Shoshana Grossbard and Roger Frantz for organizing the SABE San Diego Conference for this summer, and Detlef Fetchenhauer and Julia Pradel for organizing SABE-IAREP Cologne Conference this summer. I want to thank Gary Lynne, Bijou Yang-Lester, and Simon James for their steady work as SABE secretary, SABE treasurer, and SABE Newsletter editor. I want to thank John Smith who has agreed to organize the SABE poster sessions at the ASSA meetings. I want to thank the SABE board members for much good input and work. Ofer Azar especially deserves credit for fostering a tighter and more productive relationship between SABE and IAREP, which will help boost SABE membership, increase SABE’s reach, and improve the SABE-IAREP joint conferences. I want to thank Morris Altman and John Tomer, whose steady work on SABE’s behalf for so many years has kept the ship headed in the right direction, even as many like me rock the boat. I want to thank all those SABE members who have agreed to be Country Representatives or Regional Representatives within the U.S., for I believe this can make a positive difference over time. I want to thank the many talented SABE scholars, whose conference presentations and plenary talks have motivated so many of us to pursue research projects that stretch economics and advance social science. I apologize if I have forgotten anyone, for that is likely. I look forward to watching SABE grow, prosper, and make facilitate scholarly progress in behavioural economics. Sincerely, Mark Pingle SABE President University of Nevada, Reno, USA 2 Conferences this Summer This summer, SABE will be sponsoring two conferences. SABE San Diego 2010 will occur August 2-5 at San Diego State University in San Diego, California, USA. The Cologne 2010 IAREP / SABE / ICABEEP Conference will occur September 5-8 at the University of Cologne in Cologne, Germany. The preparations for each conference are progressing well. Shoshana Grossbard and Roger Frantz are organizing the San Diego Conference for SABE, while Detlef Fetchenhauer and Julia Pradel are organizing the Cologne Conference for SABE and IAREP (International Association for Research in Economic Psychology). The Cologne Conference is the first joint SABE-IAREP conference organized under the new ICABEEP ( International Confederation for the Advancement of Behavioral Economics and Economic Psychology) umbrella organization. Please give these conference organizers your thanks when you interact with them. Want to Organize a Future SABE Conference? In the summer of 2011, probably September, under the ICABEEP umbrella organization, SABE will join IAREP in sponsoring a conference in Exeter, England. However, it is time to start thinking about 2012 and 2013. SABE would like to have a conference in North America in 2012. In 2013, SABE will likely again sponsor a joint conference with IAREP, and any good international location will be considered. If you desire to organize either of these future conferences, please contact SABE President Mark Pingle at [email protected] SABE Conference in San Diego 2010 SABE 2010 San Diego will be held August 2-5, 2010 at San Diego State University, San Diego, CA and the preliminary program is given at the end of the Newsletter. For further information, see the conference website at http://sabe2010.org/ or contact the conference organizers Roger Frantz ( [email protected] or 619-594-3718) or Shoshana Grossbard ( [email protected] ). 3 SABE/IAREP/ICABEEP Conference in Cologne 2010 University of Cologne, Germany, September 5 th -8th , 2010 - Latest News The preparations of the organizing committee for the 2010 conference are in full swing. The Cologne group is making plans to organize an outstanding intellectual and social exchange for all conference participants. Here is the latest news. Call for Papers completed The organizing committee has received a promising number of significant and innovative contributions. Now the reviewing process has started. At the beginning of June, the organizing committee is going to inform authors whether their submission has been accepted. To ensure that the abstract of an accepted paper appears online as well as in the printed version of the conference proceedings, authors should register for conference participation within the early registration phase ending on June 30 th . Students can submit their papers until May 31st, 2010 at the latest Good news for students who want to participate in the " Elsevier/IAREP/SABE Best Student Paper Competition": the deadline for the submission of full working papers has been prolonged. Students who have already submitted a contribution within the official Call for Papers can hand in their full working papers belonging to this submission until May, 31 st . The winner of the Best Student Paper Competition 2010 receives a year's subscription to the Journal of Economic Psychology and the Journal of Socio- Economics as well as 1,000 €. Accommodation should be arranged early As soon as participants have registered, they should also arrange their accommodation: at the same time as the IAREP/SABE/ICABEEP 2010 Conference takes place, there will be two international trade fairs in Cologne. Therefore, hotels and other accommodation facilities will be in high demand. The organizing committee has reserved a couple of rooms at special prices at the conference site, the Maternushaus. Participants can book these rooms via the Maternushaus referring to the fact that they are participants of the IAREP/SABE/ICABEEP 2010 Conference. For those who would like to make economies, some rooms have been pre-booked at the cheaper Youth Hostel in Cologne-Deutz. The allocation of these Youth Hostel rooms is managed by the organizing committee itself. For more information concerning booking procedures and other organisational details, please visit the conference website under http://www.iarep-sabe.uni-koeln.de . Other events nearby for people fond of science and traveling Participants of the Cologne Conference should consider coming to Central Europe one week earlier to visit the 9 th Tiber Symposium on Psychology and Economics in Tilburg, Netherlands as well. Tilburg is 4 less than 200 kilometres away from Cologne and the combination of both conferences would give collegues from abroad the chance to combine science with a trip through Europe. The Tiber Symposium takes place at Tilbury University on 27 th of August 2010. You will find more information on the Tiber website: http://www.tilburguniversity.nl/tiber/conferences/ If you have further questions on the IAREP/SABE/ICABEEP Conference in Cologne, feel free to contact the organizing committee: Detlef Fetchenhauer ([email protected]) and Julia Pradel ( [email protected] ). SABE Session at the January 2011 ASSA Meetings in Denver Gary Charness, of the University of California Santa Barbara, has agreed to organize the SABE session at the January 2011 ASSA Meetings in Denver. Gary is a seasoned experimentalist who, in the process of exploring a wide variety of behavioural issues using experimental tools, has developed a large number of contacts in the community of good scholars doing behavioural and experimental economics. If you are attending the ASSA Meetings in Denver, do look for the SABE session that Gary organizes and he has an exciting tentative session planned. Hope you plan to attend.

  • Introduction to Special Issue on Psychological Game Theory Martin Dufwenberg & Amrish Patel
    JEBO special issue on Psychological Game Theory Guest editors: Martin Dufwenberg & Amrish Patel Introduction to Special Issue on Psychological Game Theory Martin Dufwenberg & Amrish Patel What’s your favourite article? Ours is “Psychological games and sequential rationality,” written by John Geanakoplos, David Pearce & Ennio Stacchetti (1989) (GPS). The authors point out that classical game theory, where utilities depend only on actions, isn’t a rich enough toolbox to capture a variety of psychological or social aspects of motivation. Yitzhak Gilboa & David Schmeidler (1988) reach similar insights. GPS address the issue via a new mathematical framework – psychological game theory – in which utilities are defined on beliefs (about actions and beliefs) as well as on actions. For an indication why this is special, recall GPS’ opening example: Think of a two-person game in which only player 1 moves. Player 1 has two options: she can send player 2 flowers, or she can send chocolates. She knows that 2 likes either gift, but she enjoys surprising him. Consequently, if she thinks player 2 is expecting flowers (or that he thinks flowers more likely than chocolates), she sends chocolates, and vice versa. No equilibrium in pure strategies exists. In the unique mixed strategy equilibrium, player 1 sends each gift with equal probability. Note that in a traditional finite game with only one active player, there is always a pure strategy Nash equilibrium. That this is untrue in psychological games demonstrates the impossibility of analyzing such situations merely by modifying the payoffs associated with various outcomes […]. Matthew Rabin realized that GPS’ framework is useful for modelling reciprocity, the inclination to be kind to those who are kind and to avenge those who are unkind.

  • Range Effects in Multi-Attribute Choice: an Experiment
    Range Effects in Multi-Attribute Choice: An Experiment∗ Tommaso Bondi,y D´anielCsaba,z and Evan Friedmanx November 9, 2018 Abstract Several behavioral theories suggest that, when choosing between multi-attribute goods, choices are context-dependent. Two theories provide such predictions explicitly in terms of attribute ranges. According to the theory of Focusing (K}oszegiand Szeidl[2012]), attributes with larger ranges receive more attention. On the other hand, Relative thinking (Bushong et al. [2015]) posits that fixed differences look smaller when the range is large. It is as if attributes with larger ranges are over- and under-weighted, respectively. Since the two theories make opposing predictions, it is important to understand which features of the environment affect their relative prevalence. We conduct an experiment designed to test for both of these opposing range effects in different environments. Using choice under risk, we use a two-by-two design defined by high or low stakes and high or low dimensionality (as measured by the number of attributes). In the aggregate, we find evidence of focusing in low-dimensional treatments. Classifying subjects into focusers and relative thinkers, we find that focusers are associated with quicker response times and that types are more stable when the stakes are high. ∗We thank seminar audiences at both NYU and Columbia, as well as the SWEET Conference 2018 participants, for insightful comments. We are grateful to Hassan Afrouzi, Ala Avoyan, Andrew Caplin, Alessandra Casella, Mark Dean, Guillaume Fr´echette, Alessandro Lizzeri and Andrew Schotter for useful suggestions, and to the Columbia Experimental Laboratory in the Social Sciences for financial support.
